Gruide to Washington. 

AVe now propose to take the traveler to all the places of note in and 
about Washington, commencing with the most prominent building, which 
is the Capitol. This magnificent structure is situated at the intersection of 
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland Avenues. This is a building of 
which the American people may well he proud. It is built in the five ordei^ of 
architecture, with ten different kinds of marble, surmounted by a dome of 
solid iron. The entire length of the building, from the Senate Chamber, in 
the North, to the Hall of Representatives, in the South, is 850 feet. Its 
l)readth, from East to West, is 500 feet : the Dome having a base diameter 
of 96 feet, and a clear height of 220 feet. The Dome presents a magnificent 
spectacle when illuminated with its thousand gas-lights, presenting to the 
eye its many historical paintings, designed and executed by the most eminent 
artists of the world. Having introduced you into this magnificent building, 
we would suggest that you procure a small guide, viz : "a pamphlet which 
can be had in the Rotunda, (at a trifling cost,) containing a Key to the Senate 
Chamber and House of Representatives ; also of everything (^f im])ortance in 
and about the l)uilding. 

From the (Japitol proceed to the Smithsonian Institute, via 7th Street 
cars, to the East gate, where you will pass through grounds beautifully laid 
out and handsomely decorated. TJiis is a department more particularly cal- 
culated to interest the antinuarian, but, nevertheless, any scientific mind 
will here find much to its edification. This Institution has recently lost 
many of its chief atractions by fire, consisting of ancient paintings, engravings, 
&c., Avhich can never be replaced. Anima's may here be seen ranging in 
size from the smallest insect to the lar2:est and most o-icantic kinos of the 



History of the ITITar. 

Although Ave might go many years back to find the first seeds of the 
rebellion, yet this record properly commences Avith the assembling of the 
South Carolina Convention at Columbia, on the 17th of December, 1860. 
The Southern leaders foreseeing the defeat of their measures by the election 
of Abraham Lincoln, issued manifestoes and made violent speeches, calcu- 
lated to arouse the jjassions of the people. After the 6th of November, the 
Southerners prosecuted war measures energetically. Cabinet ofiicers scat- 
tered the army and navy, and robbed the Federal Treasury. Many of the 
more moderate fought against secession for a long time, but were finally 
overwhelmed by the tide and carried with it; All eftorts on the part of com- 
mittees appointed by both Houses of Congress to harmonize the antagonistic 
elements were unsuccessful. On the 8th of November, the Palmetto flag 
Avas hoisted in Charleston, and South Carolina voted $100,000 to purchase 
arms. On the lOtli a committee Avas called, and the United States ofiicers 
in Charleston resigned. Georgia also voted $1,000,000 to arm the State. 
Major Anderson Avas placed in command at Fort Moultrie. President Bu- 
chanan took the position that the General Government had no authority to 
coerce a State if she AvithdrcAv from the Union. Louisiana at' once appro- 
priated $500,000 for military purposes. HoAvell Cobbj Secretary of the 
Treasury, resigned. President Buchanan opposed the reinforcement of the 
forts of Charleston harbor, and then Gen. Cass, Secretary of State, resigned 
in disgust. On the 20th South Carolina seceded by a unanimous vote in hei- 
convention, and the ncAvs Avas joyfully receiA^ed throughout the South. One

Government Claims Attorney 

Office, Room 11, Intelligencer Building,

Makes Collections with all possible dispatch of Claims of 

every description against the Government, and 

in part as follows, viz: 

Liquidation and Unliquidated Damages upon all express contracts not executed 
in full, or which Lave been violated by the United States, which cases cover services 
rendered and supplies and materials furnished in every department of the Govern- 
ment ; also, supplies and materials taken by competent authority since the late war 
without contract or agreement in respect to the same ; also classes of the latter cases 
arising during the war, which by law are not regarded as appropriations, by virtue of 
the belligerent right of the Government. Also, Bounties, Pensions, Property of all 
classes lost in the military service, and all other cases founded on existing laws. 

Claims of Loyal Citizens of Southern States arising during the war can now ho 
collected only by application to Congress, but it is to be hoped that a general law will 
soon be enacted whereby such claims may be settled. 

I make a specialty of Rejected and Litigated Cases, and will give, upon appli- 
cation, references as to numerous such cases in which I liave been sncces.sful. 

In Claims entrusted to my care, I undertake to demonstrate that the policy 
which is declared and confirmed, of full pavment of the funded and currency debt,

Battle of Milton, Tenn. 27th — Major General Burnside assumed command 
of the Department of Ohio. April 7th — Attack on Charleston ; the gun- 
l)oat fleet, under Admiral Dupont, made an attack on Fort Sumter, but after 
an action of thirty minutes, in which several of the fleet were disabled, they 
were compelled to withdraw ; in this action the rebels had 300 guns, while 
the fleet had but 84. Ap. 20tli — The Army of the Potomac commenced crossing

Uam.nu resigned Ujc jiosiUou of Chief Clerk of the Hecoiul Comptroller's Uflice with a view to eii- 
giining in the practice of Law and the Collection of Claims against the United States, I rcspectftillv 
solicit whatever bnsiness of that ch.aracter the reader maj' have to transact at Washington. 

For several years mv bnsiness in the office of the Second Comptroller (whose functions are to de- 
cide finally on Army, Navy, Indian, and Pension Claims) has been to write decisions on the very points 
that are involved in the classes of claims 1 now jjroposo to prosecute, and I must have improved my 
opportunities indift'erently well if 1 have not obtained a more thorough and comprehensive Unowledfe 
of the laws and decisions governing such claims than other agents generally possess. It is the decision 
of the Comptroller that determines the fate of a claim — whatever may have been the action of the 
Auditor or administrative bureau — and iiersons interested will not therefore fiiil to see the advantage 
of entrusting, espccinUy large claims, to one who is perfectly familiar with the practice and iulin<i-s of 
that office. 

I will prosecute as cft'ectnally and promptly as the nature of the claitns and of the public offices 
will permit, all claims growing out of breaches of contracts by the U. S.; or for rent of buildings or 
laud; or for value or use of steamboats, houses or other jiroperty. t;iUeu or used by the Armvor Xavv: 
or for bounties, buck pay, pensions and patents : also claims for the return of money improperlv col- 
lected in the Customs or Internal Revenue Departments, as well as for the remission of fines, forfeitures 
and i)enallies. 

No cases accepted that do not e.vceed $2.">, and no advance fee asked when I advise prosecution.

.Mr. J. W. .S.viTH, late Chief Clerk of this office, having resigned to engage in the bnsiness of his
